WOH SHAAM KUCH AJEEB THI

The Year...1969.....the film....KHAMOSHI.....the lyrics...Gulzar....the Music director....Hemant Kumar.....and the singer.....Kishoreda......and what a combination with Rajesh Khanna and Waheeda doin a superb job in complementing this song......
One of the best melodies ive ever heard and probably one of Kishoreda's biggest feather in his cap........
To try and attempt this song is only possible if youve experienced that ''Dard''....and seperation yourself....
The voice modulations are a true stamp of Hemant Kimar's music style.....but extremely effective here....
And the music.....super duper...
So here's one of my most favourite and Kishoreda's most adored song of the century......for your earbuds...

WOH SHAAM..... KUCH..... AJEEB THI........

Tu Auron ki kyun ho gayi

Ek Baar Musqura do.....A decent film with a love triangle....with the Mukherjee bros and Tanuja....
This song was a homework for all those percussion players at that time,since the beat was very fast.....and Kishoreda at a feverishly high pitch....to get that effect of near screaming.....for that anguish to come forth on the mic....
For me this song reminded me of the period when Storm left me....and hence you know how you feel when someone cheats you after promising...in fact i had recorded this song exactly one year after the separation.....in 2008...
But then...Time is the best Healer........And now...youre in love again....so thats life....

So here's "Tu Auron ki kyu ho gayi'...with all that anguish i had accumulated in 2007.....

Yaaron Nilam karo susti

 Prem Pujari....Superb songs all the way....Yaaron nilaam karo susti...
This was a classic song by Kishoreda and Bhupinder....

The harqats taken by both of them....superb...again an RD composition....
I just love this song...and the way Kishoreda has sung it!!!
It had to be on my blog....

Tu Pyaar Tu Preet

Two back to back numbers from 'Paraya Dhan'....This song was melody personified....superb lyrics and RD freaking out with Kishoreda and Lata's voice technique....

Voice control at its ultimate alongwith the different 'harqats' taken by both the singers...Super!!!
A must hear from the repertoire of Kishore and Lata's duets.....
But at the moment it is Nitin & Lata for you here....enjoy it!!!

DIL HAYE MERA DIL

1971-Paraya Dhan...a superb film with superb songs composed by Punchamda and sung by Kishore Kumar and the nightingale of India....
This song has a unique lift in it....the melody coming out right thru and Kishoreda's voice throw....perfect....
To get that right took immense practise andbelieve me this number is not as easy to sing as it sounds.....

But then these legends always put in the riyaz for all their songs...unlike today...
So please check out and let me know if ive got it right......

Dil Kaa Aalam

Aashiqui- A complete Nadeem Shravan musical....With Sanu freaking out imitating Kishoreda's style to its core....
And so do countless others including me....
I have chosen this song since its an All Time fav of most listeners....and has a super romantic touch to it....
The video is quite entertaining and depicts romance quite well...
So here's ...Dil Kaa Aalam kaise bataoo tujhe....

Ek Chehre ne bohot....pyaar se dekha mujhe........
Love Blossoms again......

Kahin Karti Hogi

Phir kab milogi-A film of the 70's with Biswajit and Mala Sinha....
This song was immensely popular at that time and Mukesh was awarded with one of the singing trophies for this song...

The style of this singing was really unique and one has to really understand breath control to sing this song well....
I normally get Mukesh's style quite well...so ...this song sort of came naturally to me...
Hope you'll enjoy it too....
